| chemical characterisation and biological activity of leaf essential oils obtained from pistacia terebinthus growing wild in tunisia and sardinia island. | in the present work the chemical compositions, measured by gc and gc-ms, of the essential oils obtained by hydrodistillation from leaves of pistacia terebinthus collected in bizerte (tunisia) and baunei (italy) are reported. both essential oils possessed high content of monoterpene hydrocarbons (86.3% and 90.9%, respectively), being α-pinene (62.4 vs. 35.0)%, camphene (3.0 vs. 2.4)%, β-pinene (12.1 vs. 4.5)%, terpinolene (1.7 vs. 35.2)% and β-phellandrene (3.8 vs. 4.5)% the main components. the ... | 2017 | 28278668 |
